Seemyshell (00:00.066)
Welcome to the official Munzee podcast.

Rob (00:03.641)
I'm Rob, also known as Coach V, your host and the president of Munzee.

Seemyshell (00:07.495)
And I'm Craig also known as Seemyshell I'm an avid Munzee player and I'm here to explore the game further.

Rob (00:12.505)
Each week we'll delve into Munzee's mysteries, divulge some secrets, and inform players from around the world just what is coming your way.

Seemyshell (00:19.854)
So sit back, relax and you can relax today Rob because of last week's episode it was really long. But today Rob we're going to talk about Clan Wars. We're going to talk about what December invents in time for Christmas. I am saying the Christmas, the Christmas word early. Christmas already. Come on, why, why, why?

Rob (00:25.873)
Rob (00:35.813)
I mean...

Rob (00:40.079)
Because it's already November in the US, we start talking about Christmas right after Halloween. Halloween comes and goes. It's time to get the Christmas decorations up. Forget about fall, autumn, all that stuff. Get rid of your pumpkins. Get the Christmas stuff out.

Seemyshell (00:44.782)
Of course.

Yeah.

Seemyshell (00:54.114)
Mm-hmm.

You know, you know, one person who doesn't do that, Rob, and they don't do it on purpose. And that is my mother-in-law because, because she's got Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving first. So then the day after Thanksgiving, you see a transformation of her entire house and your fat parents are probably, they're saying probably the same. You see a transformation of the entire house. It goes from the oranges and reds and the browns colors to the red and white. know.

Rob (01:12.849)
You are correct.

Rob (01:22.245)
Mm-hmm. You are correct. My family is exactly the same way. Thanksgiving is definitely a thing. so they, you know, my mom decorates for that. She changes some of the Halloween stuff over for Thanksgiving. And then all of that day after Thanksgiving, that is the official day for trees and everything else to go up. And that's a time consuming process for my dad.

Seemyshell (01:29.218)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (01:36.376)
Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Switch it.

Seemyshell (01:45.848)
I couldn't. Yeah. I was going to say like, maybe they get maybe, or maybe I'll get worse as well as we get older and sort of we go into that retirement years where we've got not much else to do apart from just change our house out like every single month or so. But anyway, anyway, Rob, I'm digressing. I'm digressing.

Rob (02:00.003)
You

Rob (02:03.759)
Well, but before you fully go on, mean, we, you know, we've moved into a new house here and we're able to decorate it, you know, and have a really good time. so Lou has turned our, you know, downstairs, Lou toilet, visit, you know, visitor bathroom, if you will, US style, into a Paris bathroom. And we've had chats about like, man, maybe, maybe we get enough stuff from some other place. And it turns into a,

Seemyshell (02:08.59)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (02:13.432)
yeah?

Seemyshell (02:20.288)
You

Seemyshell (02:26.508)
Yes.

Rob (02:33.015)
Los Angeles Olympics, you know, bathroom down the road like it's it is all perished out right now, though.

Seemyshell (02:34.727)
Hahaha!

Seemyshell (02:40.02)
When, when I did see I, because of people, I was there a couple of weeks ago. I did see that Rob and, I know the reason why, because after you, you get your beer snob Rob going on and you have quite a few brews, you go in there downstairs one to relieve yourself and you become the leading tower of Pisa. See, that's what it is.

Rob (02:56.677)
good grief. don't know. I don't know about that. But who knows? There's all kinds. No clue. No clue.

Seemyshell (03:01.582)
You had no idea. You had no idea where I was going with it. Anyway, you're back in the UK. I'm back in the US as well. So I've finished my trip around the UK. I'm telling you, Rob, I loved it. I loved it, loved it, loved it. Especially around the North, North Island, Northern Island areas. Those old castles, 700 plus years old, these castle ruins.

And there's still some of them still stand incredible, absolutely incredible. And of course, Rob, talking about geolocation based games as well. People, I don't know whether you're like, but you can't place an actual geocache. Things at Munzee, you can place a Munzee anywhere in the world, physical or virtual. I love that. You can't do that with geocaching. You see, you have to, you have to live in the area and unless, unless Robert's A a virtual or B an earth cache. So guess what?

The Dunzevaric Castle in Northern Ireland now has an earth cache. Thank you very much. And it's mine. So there you go. There you go. So yeah. So another difference between the geolocation based gaming anywhere in the world, you can play Munzey or place Munzey. So there you go. Yeah. Yeah.

Rob (03:59.567)
Very cool. Very cool.

Rob (04:08.505)
nice. Well, that is great. I've never been all the way up to Northern Ireland, but I've seen some of the old castles like up in Scotland and everything. Same. it's, there's a lot of really cool stuff to see over here across all five of the countries, like you'd said previously.

Seemyshell (04:13.944)
Really?

Yeah. Yep.

Seemyshell (04:23.736)
Mm-hmm.

Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. mean, Rob, I'll tell you now I've never been so confused in all my life because we're up there for a wedding. was a, not my friend, but another family friend's wedding. And so we were after the wedding, Rob, we're in this old town bar area, Bushmills Inn was called and it was, they had the cozy fireplace going, but then you had some Americans, you had me, the Australian, you had some locals there and some Scottish there as well. Man.

Accidents were flying left right and center. I'm telling you it was incredible. It was incredible after after the night I've now got a place to stay in Scotland next time I go over there just saying

Rob (04:57.763)
Yeah.

Rob (05:04.555)
Nice, nice, very cool.

Seemyshell (05:07.4)
Anyway, Rob, it's been five minutes in and we're too busy talking about ourselves. Let's talk about the events and the week and the week that was in USA. We only had Florida and around the world. had UK and ACT leaderboards. Rob, you can start off with Friday,

Rob (05:19.641)
All right, Friday, we had a Vato tech at two hundred and nine thousand. Munsey Prof, one hundred eighty six thousand. Cole Cracker seven at one hundred and fifty nine thousand. And right there at the end of the day, looks like she beat Whalen by less than 400 points. So he came in fourth place.

Seemyshell (05:35.958)
Wow. There you go. On Saturday we had, Weelan's revenge because he got first with 288,000 points. Vatotec with 252,000 in second place. Munzee Prof in third this time rather than second. And he, he then pipped out Coal Cracker 7 by 1000 points. So there you go. Like between the four of those over the weekend, I'm telling you, they're quite funny to watch. It is, it is.

Rob (06:00.559)
Rotation, yeah, Rotation Friday, Saturday. And then you know what happened. And then Netherlands had an event, didn't they? So, wait, no, that's not what this is. Those names are not, I was thinking that's where those were from. Nope, Sunday, we went to a whole new leaderboard. Jeb JG, Jeb, Jeb Big J, I don't know. 561,000, Pobojope.

Seemyshell (06:09.015)
Now what's this in Sunday?

No.

Yeah.

Seemyshell (06:22.222)
Big Jai.

Rob (06:30.737)
423,000 and Brasilia 334,000. That rounds it out.

Seemyshell (06:36.03)
And current events this weekend mate, have Florida, Minnesota and Missouri and around the world we have...

Rob (06:42.531)
Ontario, we've got two in British Columbia and those are in Canada. Then we've got one in the UK, one in Finland, Netherlands and one in Perth, Western Australia.

Seemyshell (06:53.55)
Perth Rob Perth see Munzee spreading its wings spreading its wings around the area I know one person is in Perth and we've mentioned him on the show before that's the Mac man he's in Perth yeah so you see I know my way around and you know why I know Rob because I've got I've got a POI in the middle of Perth itself and he caps it almost daily so that's how I know that the Mac man is there so well done shout out to the Mac man for capping my POI

Rob (06:55.845)
way out there. Yeah.

Rob (07:04.569)
yeah.

Seemyshell (07:18.894)
Meanwhile, we're going to go through these quickly. The big events coming up January 19 to 16 and 19, sorry, in Florida. this one's growing Rob. There's five events, 31 so far Munzee quest and block party, January 25th and 26 in Sydney, Australia. Again, it's growing to Munzee madness in California, March 8th and 9th, May the third is Munzee in Uranus and big fun in Uranus. So if you want to go have some big fun in Uranus, then, get to that event. 22 people there so far.

Rob (07:19.153)
Nice.

Seemyshell (07:45.806)
20 May 24th is Munstock. Again, this one's growing too Rob nicely. And then June 7th and 8th is Ohio hosting the SOS. And don't forget if you're a host of a big event and you want to reach out to me, if I haven't seen you already and say, look, I'm hosting, can we have some airtime on the podcast? So there you go, Rob, we're eight minutes in, which is nice because we've got to talk about this week, this week, some answers. We've actually got to catch up a little bit, Rob. Did you know that? Because Clan Wars has already started.

Rob (08:12.815)
Yeah, okay. Yeah.

Seemyshell (08:15.052)
See, we were supposed to talk about Clan Wars last week, but last week was just full jam packed, full of, you know, all that sort of goodness that it was. this week is all about the, for the time being Clan Wars. Rob, tell us a little bit more about Clan Wars in terms of again, how you come up with the different things that you had to choose to do. think Cubamals, sorry, Cubamals are the, don't hate me Sam, were one of the new things that you enacted. Any reasons for these new enactments?

Rob (08:43.844)
Yeah, the only thing that's brand new that came out for this month after listening, you know, to some of the feedback about having too many new things in the month of October. The only new thing was cubable points. so decided, okay, let's let's have a little fun. Let's do this in a couple of different ways. Let's have a number of caps and deploys for the upper levels. But

Seemyshell (08:49.312)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (08:52.931)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (09:06.894)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (09:10.722)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (09:12.963)
also then have a number of points, knowing that people can get creative if they don't have enough cubables to deploy, that they could get creative with some of the rest of it. So give some options.

Seemyshell (09:16.046)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (09:22.968)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (09:29.506)
And I think that was the, that was the consensus too, from the water cooler, cetera, as well. And that is I don't have enough cubimals to deploy. I'm not going to make my, my, my requirements. The thing is though, again, with this game, it's not just about, it's strategic. It's not just about deploying stuff or it's not just about capping stuff. It's both. It's all of the above. And so, what I liked about this, Robert is that is day one, that's right. On the 3rd of November, it came to my, across my desk, Craig.

This is how you get 3000 cubimole points in one hit. Are you ready for this Rob? Are you ready for this? Can I say, I'm going to say it. I'm going to tell them. Okay. It's, it's been known already people. Okay. There's three ways you can get these points. Listen very carefully. The first one, you must be in app. That's right. On your phone itself. And you must have patience. What you need to do. You need to deploy a potion of plenty. That's right. A new, the new red little potions deploy that itself. You can deploy it for one of your clan members. Not a problem itself.

Rob (10:02.001)
Yes, please please please tell

Seemyshell (10:27.852)
You must deploy it in app, that's right, on your phone. You can't do this on a computer. You then go to the new redeem section again on your phone in app, that's on the Camp Hub. You then deploy a cubamole if you've got one to deploy, which is normally 1000 points. Now, Rob, 3000 points, but, but, but, but, can't just go out of that after you redeem it and then click on something else because cubamoles take a little bit of a while to sort of redeem. So you then literally go out.

Rob (10:48.145)
Wow.

Seemyshell (10:57.678)
I left my phone Rob for 10 minutes, came back. There's a 3000 points. I know other people who didn't do that and went in and kept their Skyland and got 30 points for their Skyland. And they were like, I wasted us. Yes, you did. So, yeah. So you can do that. As I said, you must wait until that cubicle is deployed and comes up as deployed in your list before you cap or do anything else. Don't deploy, don't cap. Don't do anything else until you see that three times points. And there you go, Rob, there's 3000 cubicle points.

in one hit. Do you like that? Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no. You always say, no, no, no, no, no, Rob, you always say, you always say you're a man of the people, right? And you see, do this, you always say, it seems like it's, difficult to begin with until someone works it out. Once there's someone works it out, obviously then everyone's happy that they work it out. Now there's other ways. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Rob (11:29.905)
Wow, that makes me think that I should raise the number of points sky high.

Rob (11:50.415)
Yeah, no, and I'll say that that's exactly right. And if you remember back to two weeks ago when we released those potions, that was one of the things that we did talk about is we always come up with, here's a few things that this will work really well for. But we obviously don't know every way that people are going to get creative with it. So I'm excited. I'm impressed. Well done. Everyone's found a good way to use it. Yeah.

Seemyshell (11:59.566)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (12:06.047)
Mm. Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (12:12.166)
Exactly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, the one that this has come across my desk from the one, the only Hills in my clan. So shout out to Hills for finding this one out too. She's a very much a strategic sort of player Rob, which I thoroughly enjoyed. All right, the other ways now as well, you can get actual pure numbers of cubimals coming through your area. And this was on the water cooler. And that is that you just have to magnetize an amethyst or some sort of gem that's nearby you.

Rob (12:24.965)
Okay.

Seemyshell (12:44.648)
And you predominantly are going to attract cubimals on that rather than any other types. It's not, it's not given people. Okay. You don't put in a support ticket if you don't get a cubimals because it can only handle as many cubimals are actually out in the wild. But Rob, I'm going to say after the double point weekend on the Sunday, the November 17th, sorry, the week, sorry, Sunday, November 17 to 24. That's the second and third week of the actual month. There's going to be a lot more out there because

That week is double points on cubimools people. So if you're still struggling, then that week itself is double points on cubimools for your points. but you'll also find that there's a lot more cubimools going to be invested in the game itself, because I'm telling you, Rob, I know, I know several people who are literally, they should be on that TV show hoarders. You know, the TV show where everyone like hoards their stuff in their house. These people hoard Munsies like they hoard them.

Rob (13:36.657)
Hahaha.

do.

Seemyshell (13:43.774)
I will say this to all the hoarders out there and that is, he won't give you points if it's in your inventory people. So there you go. That's my little, that's my little shout out. So what do think about those tips? Yeah.

Rob (13:52.305)
That's true. That's true. I was just looking because you said 17th through 24th and that was the double point week and I was like, what? I don't remember it being a full week. And so I've looked and it's like, yeah, OK, confirmed. It is. Yeah. So wow.

Seemyshell (14:03.062)
weak. Yeah. Yeah.

Seemyshell (14:09.27)
Yeah, it's a full... I did the same thing when I was writing the notes, mate. I double-checked. I double-checked. went, what? Is that a week? Is that a week? Yeah, it's a week. Yeah.

Rob (14:14.801)
Yeah, that's impressive. So yeah, I like it. think all of these are great suggestions and and I hope that, you know, everyone just this is just kind of that reminder that when you look at the clan requirements, you may think, they they they've lost their mind. You know, this is going to be how is this even possible? And there's always things that happen that aren't announced on the 28th, but they are announced a bit later.

Seemyshell (14:21.93)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (14:35.437)
Hmm.

Rob (14:44.785)
That that help out quite a bit. So you've come up with a couple. Maybe there's even more coming soon

Seemyshell (14:51.502)
Maybe there's even more. That's just the ones that, that have been come past my eyes. I'll I'll be honest. None of that was my, none of those was my idea. I don't take any credit for any of those sort of things. shout out to the people who do, who should be taking credit that comes through my ears and eyes. So there you go. All right, Rob, that's the clan war stuff. again, people, if you have any questions in regards to things that happen through Munzee, whether it be like the clan wars requirements or anything like that, shout me out. Jimmy, give me, give me a message.

Rob (14:55.557)
Yeah, yeah.

Rob (14:59.63)
Yeah

Rob (15:03.398)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (15:18.38)
message me on the, even the official app. If you don't know any of my socials, I don't care. I'm there, see my shell. It's not hard to like type in and ask me a question and, and I can put it towards Rob. So, all right, Rob, we're going to move on now to the event packages for ho ho ho Merry Christmas December.

Rob (15:36.081)
Yeah, it's it's almost here the most wonderful time of the year So, yeah. Yeah, not you're right. So I'm enjoy the month of December and festivities you know and and certainly not all but In Munzee, we tend to celebrate this and just give everybody a good reason regardless For hanging out in in December so this year

Seemyshell (15:56.216)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (16:00.258)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (16:06.299)
called the December desserts event package. All right, yeah, December desserts because, right, because, you know, we've had cake this year and so all of the themes of the different big themed events packages have related to baked goods, flour, sugar, know, cake, that kind of thing.

fatting and fatlessing up for Christmas. Yes.

Seemyshell (16:27.01)

So we've changed things up just a little bit and done something. Well, we've brought a couple of things back and we've added something brand new for everybody. So here's what we've got. And this is important for hosts. And if you're not a host, then, you know, okay, we get it. mostly hosts say tune in. This is from the blog. It should have gone out on Wednesday, as of today when we're recording this. If not, it certainly will be out by Friday.

Seemyshell (16:50.2)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (16:54.926)
Mm hmm.

Rob (16:58.713)
So, yeah, for seventy five dollars, you receive the choice of a badge and icon. And there is a list of those that comes from Lou after you've set up an event on the calendar. This time, we're giving everyone double cake for this special event badge. Yeah. So instead of 50 cake by attending one of these events in December, you know, you're rounding out your cake numbers toward the end of the year. Right. So.

Seemyshell (17:10.059)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (17:15.368)
Seemyshell (17:26.013)

I mean, hey, boom, right off the bat, very first thing, something new. get 50 exclusive event elf greeting cards. OK, so new design. There I I'm going to be building small gardens that are various types of virtual Munsies that are going to be deployed at your event location by Father Christmas himself. All right, so.

Seemyshell (17:31.736)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (17:38.728)
Mm-hmm. Needle's on.

Seemyshell (17:55.781)
Rob (17:57.201)
the name of Santa Claus over here in England and in various parts of the world. So Father Christmas has a Munzee account. He played many years ago. Yeah, during events. He played many years ago. He's decided that he's coming back and he's going to put Munzees out for all the good boys and girls out there around the world.

Seemyshell (18:01.454)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (18:06.219)
he does?

Seemyshell (18:14.2)
Well...

Seemyshell (18:17.518)
Well, if that's the case, if that's the case, Rob, I'm gonna hope you're gonna help him out by telling him that he must now log in with his email address, not his actual login name. So just let him know that if he reaches out to you saying, I can't log in, that's the reason why, you know, those people out there who used to play Munzee don't play anymore and haven't played for a while. Yeah, you need your actual, you can't log in with your username anymore. It's gotta be with your email. There you go. Yeah.

Rob (18:26.417)
Good point.

Mm-hmm.

Rob (18:41.617)
Totally forgot that we better send that letter to the North Pole today. That's right. The other thing that's normal is you get we lift the proximity restrictions, easy to say. Yeah, there's the normal event pin 100 foot rules. There's going to be a December desserts host badge for up to four hosts. And here's the new thing that I also hinted at.

Seemyshell (18:45.603)
Exactly. Send away five facts.

Seemyshell (18:56.907)
yeah.

Seemyshell (19:00.322)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (19:05.073)
Seemyshell (19:09.76)
Mm-hmm. Yeah, you did.

Rob (19:09.979)
think last week was the first time that we talked about this, is that we're going to provide a 25 % discount code for hosts to give to their guests for that to be used in the online store on specific products like Zeds and Blasts, different types of credits, virtual types of things. So that code is going to be available for 48 hours from the event time.

Seemyshell (19:25.422)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (19:32.714)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Rob (19:38.969)
And that's for one US player and that is only for your event attendees. So that's going to be shared by Lou. This is something new that we're trying just kind of to, yeah, spread, spread out this type of thing all across the world and offer people a discount for, attending events. Cause you know, yeah, why not? And December. Yeah.

Seemyshell (19:44.11)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (19:49.771)
Yep. Yeah.

Seemyshell (20:00.526)
Yeah, you did. You did mention that last week, Rob. You did mention that last week and that was your, one of the things a lot of people don't realize in regards to, know, Dale and Barb, for instance, when they were traveling around the U S they used to give out discount codes or discount things all the time. and people were, were saying, you know, is that going to go away now with all the resellers gone?

That's not the case, but it's even better because now it's amongst the, it's worldwide, not just the U S so that's the UK and Australia and all the other big, and Germany, all the other big player areas. You're going to get that discount code as well. Rob reading this itself. I'm going to say this and that is there may be a few people out there that have never hosted an event before. If that's the case, people, all you need to do to start your hosting event is literally click the host event button and fill it out. And it's just a form.

Rob (20:40.625)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (20:50.766)
That's all it is. It's pretty much just a form. You fill out that form and Lube will get back to you people. And then you can worry about what add-ons you're to do, what they can do for you, et cetera, et cetera from there. Now you may say 75 bucks, that's a lot. Well, that's why there's up to four hosts. So if you've got $20 a host, there's four hosts. There you go. You've got that covered. You see, it's not as expensive what people will think it may or may not be, but the things you benefit from hosting as well, like not just the badges themselves, but you should get it. People don't realize.

You get a special host batch. You get host batches that no one else gets apart from you. That's right. You, the person at the same time, if you host a number of events, people, you start now and host a number of events, say next year, et cetera, every five or 10. I can't even remember exactly what it is, but you get extra badges on top of that as well, just by hosting those events. So if you are worried about hosting an event, reach out to Lou.

And, and she is more than adequate and more than helpful enough to sort of say, okay, this is what you need to do and explain it from there. Cause Rob, I'll say it can be daunting hosting a Munzee event can be very, very daunting, but don't let that stop you from doing it people. So there you go. Very, very good, mate. Very good. I like it. I like it. All right. Do want to move on to the, actually, do I have any more questions for you about, don't think I do one more thing I will say. And that is if you are hosting the event for the first time, the proximity rules.

Rob (21:58.619)
I agree.

Seemyshell (22:12.406)
Those proximity rules only occur on the event Munsies, not other Munsies. So what that means is this, don't place your event Munsies around the park and then try and place your own personal physical Munsies. No, that won't work because there's a proximity there. You must place your physicals around the park where you want them first and then place the event pins afterwards. Cause you can place event pins on top of other Munsies, but you can't place other Munsies on top of event pins. So.

Rob (22:39.377)
Corvrack.

Seemyshell (22:39.822)
Am I right, Robert? think I'm right. Look at that.

Rob (22:42.693)
Virtual and physical, that is correct, and cards, yep.

Seemyshell (22:45.55)
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Lou's going to be very, she doesn't listen to this podcast, but she, if she did, she'd be very proud of me. That's all I'll say. Thank you. Thank you, mate. Yeah. I appreciate it. And now, know what? I'm going to, I'm going to message myself and say, be proud of me. All right, Rob, we're going to move on to the Munzee question of the week. Now this one came to me. yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that's right.

Rob (22:51.537)
She will be. I'll tell her. I'll tell her to be proud of you.

Rob (23:03.955)
wait, there's one more thing. The Double Points weekend. So this weekend is double points on jewels, cards, and evo bouncers Friday through Sunday. So this is the bouncer stage of those evos. The butterfly, the frog, turtle, those things, don't forget. So, yep, that's important. And that's all for the week.

Seemyshell (23:14.208)
There you go.

Seemyshell (23:18.475)
yes, yes, exactly.

And well before you, if you know, know, no, because you mentioned that now, well, now I've got, I've got questions. I've got, I've got answers as well. If you don't have any either bounces out there, people, it's not that hard to do. You look at one of the ones that normally bounce around. And if you, if it's already gone up to the stage and we're level where it's at, you can reset it. Once you do an Evo reset, it then takes four weeks for the bounce to come off. That's way too late for the time being. Once you reset it, you know what you can add, what's it called? I always forget that.

Rob (23:50.715)
Quick grow.

Seemyshell (23:51.958)
Quick grow, that's the one you can add a quick grow to that Evo and it will flick off. won't grow the Evo any quicker than normal, but it will flick off the bouncer straight away. So why not people? Why not? Cause you get, do you actually, do you get deploy points for Evo's bounce? No, you don't. well either way.

Still get them done for this weekend because as I said before, it is double points on those Evo Bounces. That double points also includes cap on points as well people. So if you've got Evo Bounces out there, you're going to get double cap on points for your Evo Bounces. So, and Rob, if you don't know how to do any of that stuff, I've got videos, I've got videos on how to sort of reset and go from there too. So very nice, very cool to see. While I'm there, jewels.

Double points on jewels. Did I mention before in this episode, if you magnetize a jewel, then there's a possibility you're gonna get a cubimole. my goodness gracious me, Rob. I am literally full of it today. And the good stuff too, like the actual information rather than just the normal things that I'm full of. Anyway, moving on to the Munzee question of the week. This one, Rob, are you ready? It's a bit of a doozy. It came to me through social media and they said, I must.

Rob (24:43.87)
man, man.

Rob (24:48.995)
Indeed.

Seemyshell (25:04.038)
Must Rob be anonymous? I do not want my name called out for this question, but that person, that person says, Rob, is all the stock going to be delivered from the UK now when some Munzee employees still live in USA?

Rob (25:07.569)
All right.

Rob (25:20.611)
Yes, yes, you are correct. That is exactly what's happening. We're transitioning through through, you know, a new period. We talked about that last week. And for now, the shipping is all going to be coming right directly out of this location, right out of England. We don't have any other offices. So I've taken on the the goal or not the goal, the job.

Seemyshell (25:39.886)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (25:48.906)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Rob (25:50.229)
of shipping. I've got a couple of people here in this house that are being drafted to help me out. Lou helped me about 40 minutes after I landed the other day, she was helping me with stickers and stamping and all that. So that's all happening now. It's all the stickers is all the Munzee products. With the exception of like shirts and clothing and the other print on demand items, there are some like sticker sheets and things like that, that are online. So

Seemyshell (26:04.364)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (26:09.922)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (26:14.51)
Yes.

Seemyshell (26:18.478)
Mm-hmm. Yep.

Rob (26:20.477)
the, the nice part is that I travel, back to the U S, fairly often because my son, my parents, my family, friends and all that they are back there. Lou enjoys riding her bike in the sunshine. Florida has that. so, you know, we, we do go back from time to time. And, when we do that, like I'll be holding onto orders that are going out in the U S I'll start.

Seemyshell (26:27.384)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (26:30.85)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (26:48.977)
holding on to those so that they will ship faster once I get there. So hopefully that makes sense. There's a lot of thought process that's going into this that shifting of things as we as we find different ways to do stuff. And what makes the most sense. But for now, yes, all shipping here.

Seemyshell (26:52.376)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (27:07.544)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (27:12.836)
cause I was just thinking about it, Rob, as well. As we said, literally the only thing that Munzee, actually Munzee ships are physical stickers and obviously the personals as well, when they come out too, like the ones on the dog tags, that sort of thing. but, but all the rest of the stuff, like, as you said, the shirts, the printing print on demand items come from a totally different store that literally is print on demand. It's got nothing to do with, with, with Munzee and the, and the UK or, or location base. So really it is just stickers.

Now, if people didn't pick up on last week's episode, there was a time there, Rob, when you said that's a 2025 plan. And you were talking about the actual, you know, the physical stickers and the, and the generic stickers and it's a possibility people keep in mind that this is only just a possibility for the time being, because I'm not part of the team. don't know. I'm just picking up on what Rob put down last week. Rob.

Rob (27:47.793)
Mm. Yeah.

Rob (27:53.829)
Yeah.

Rob (28:01.329)
Yeah, I don't know what you're gonna say, but yeah.

Seemyshell (28:06.644)
Rob did say that in 2025 there's a possibility whereby you may be able to print out your own generics at some point in time. You did. Yeah.

Rob (28:14.189)
I hinted at something along those lines. Yes. And there have been questions coming to me about that. And I've not given any clarification to any of those people because it is very much a big picture conversation about shipping, about stickers, about physical production, all of that. It's all one big conversation right now. And most of that conversation is happening between my two ears.

Seemyshell (28:30.366)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. Yep.

Seemyshell (28:39.18)
Yeah. And so all I said.

there you go. Well, all I said, and I'll reiterate this as well, I said it last week, and that is people, if you have like a handful or a big nice little batch of generic stickers we're talking about, they're the stickers that you can use to replace other Munsies, not the ones you can print out yourself from the actual Munsy website. Keep those generic stickers, people, to literally replace. That's it. Don't use those stickers to place your own Munsies in locations. You should be

printing out your own to replace it to place your Munzees in different locations for the time being and seeing what pans out in 2025. So yeah.

Rob (29:21.851)
Some people still can't quite even create their own Munsies because they have so many hoarded, undeployed Munsies. So good luck to those people. I know, man. See, that's the thing. I've got all all the information all the way around all of it. And that's the reason that we really are looking into and talking about and thinking about how do we change things moving into 2025.

Seemyshell (29:32.398)
Seemyshell (29:41.067)
Yeah you do.

Rob (29:50.83)
But yeah, there won't be any major changes in the next two months. It is out there.

Seemyshell (29:50.904)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (29:55.662)
Yeah, yeah, of course, of course. We're up to Christmas. There's a lot happening. As I said, the 2025 and as you heard it right here, people first last week you heard it and I picked up what Rob's putting down. but I didn't realize that was a conversation happening in Rob's mind only at that point in time. So we'll see.

Rob (30:10.615)
no, the majority of the conversation is here. It is happening with other people in the company as well, because we do have to prepare, because it is not a quick process for some of the things that I am thinking and talking about. yeah, if people are interested in getting those generic stickers, I'll say order early because all of the shipping times worldwide start to slow down as we get into December. So don't wait. We also have Cappy the plushie available worldwide now.

Seemyshell (30:17.646)
Fair enough.

Seemyshell (30:21.048)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (30:28.172)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (30:36.11)
Of course, of course.

Rob (30:40.273)
as I'm shipping it from here.

Seemyshell (30:41.678)
Yes. Yeah, exactly. Also order order early, but also order bulk as well. Like there's no real limits per se on to how many sheets of, of the generics that you can post to one person at any one time, Rob, just saying, you know, and if, if there's a sheet, it was at 25 or 50 on a sheet. can't remember exactly, just the normal 50, 50, 50 on a sheet. Don't order just one sheet thinking, yeah, I'll just order a sheet and that'll do for us. No, order 10 sheets. Order. You know what?

Rob (31:00.657)
50, yeah.

Rob (31:09.378)
my gosh. What? Please don't.

Seemyshell (31:10.392)
Give, give, give Rob, give Rob some more work to do and, and Lou and the child and the child labour and the child labour that's that's lose two sons as well. Cause I'm sure they're helping out as well.

Rob (31:19.217)
Please don't give me more work to do. More work involving cutting stickers and shipping all of those things because everything doesn't come pre-cut. yeah. They come in sheets of like 500 at a time and they get cut down into 50s. the things that the avid Munzee player doesn't know. Isn't that crazy?

Seemyshell (31:22.574)
You don't cut out. really? you cut them up.

Seemyshell (31:34.35)
Ohhhh

Seemyshell (31:43.443)
my goodness gracious me Rob. Wow. Wow. There you are.

Rob (31:47.807)
the pain that you could have just caused me, but that's all right because I've caused this for myself. I'm the one who's chosen where the shipping happens. Yeah, it's all good.

Seemyshell (31:54.786)
It's okay. It's okay. So the, hear this from you. You'll love this then you love everything I say about this, but I hear this and that is people, if you've got a gripe with Rob, then order more, order more generics. If you've got a gripe with Rob and that'll, you know, that'll, that'll teach you that'll learn you.

Rob (32:12.503)
my goodness. I'll write you a personal note in your sticker sheets as well if you do. But thanks, thanks everyone.

Seemyshell (32:17.422)
there you go. You're going to get them autographed. You're going to even get an autograph people. Look at that. at that. Guess what, Rob? Rob, Rob, guess what? I'm going to end it for you right here. This ends another official Munzee podcast. I'm going to dig you out of the water.

Rob (32:24.953)
Wow. Where have we gone?

Rob (32:35.013)
Thank goodness. And thanks for joining us on this Munzee adventure.

Seemyshell (32:39.97)
Don't forget people to subscribe, rate and review on your favourite podcasting app and of course join us next week for another fun episode. This was fun Rob.

Rob (32:47.585)
yeah, and remember Munzee is more than a game, it's a worldwide community of mobile game players.

Seemyshell (32:55.896)
So keep scanning, keep discovering, keep that Munzee Spirit live, Rob. One, two, three, buy more generics.

Rob (33:00.559)
Munzeon! What have you done to me?
